What white glove actually means
Every mover says careful. White glove is a different standard of process. It starts before moving day: a detailed walkthrough, a written plan for every significant piece, and an unhurried crew that works methodically and carefully in the home from the first minute to the last.
- Artwork, mirrors, and glass packed in purpose-built picture boxes with corner protection
- Designer and oversized furniture disassembled, wrapped in blankets plus stretch film, and reassembled precisely
- Wine and fragile collections packed in purpose-built boxes and loaded last, unloaded first
- Full packing and full unpacking, down to made beds and hung clothes in wardrobe boxes
- Clean, careful work at both addresses - we leave no trace behind
- Full-value protection available on every white glove move
Discretion is part of the service
Estates in Atherton, Hillsborough, and Pacific Heights come with gates, staff, cameras, and neighbors who notice. Our crews arrive on schedule, coordinate with house managers and building staff, follow site rules without being reminded, and treat what they see and move as private. If your situation calls for a signed NDA, we are glad to sign one.
Where we do this
San Francisco's premium neighborhoods (Pacific Heights, Presidio Heights, Sea Cliff, Russian Hill), the Peninsula estate towns (Atherton, Hillsborough, Woodside, Los Altos), and white glove long-distance anywhere in California - a fixed price, one dedicated crew, delivery on a scheduled day.
Frequently asked questions
How is white glove moving priced?
After a walkthrough, in person or by video. You get one flat-rate price covering the crew, all materials, and the plan. For significant homes we would rather see the pieces first and quote precisely than guess and adjust later.
How do you handle large paintings and glass tables?
In purpose-built picture and mirror boxes with corner protection, wrapped and marked for orientation. Every significant piece is discussed and planned before moving day.
Do your crews work with house managers and estate staff?
Constantly. Send us your contact's details and we coordinate arrival windows, gate access, parking, and site rules directly, so you do not have to relay messages.
Is white glove available for long-distance moves?
Yes - it is where the service matters most. One dedicated crew loads, drives, and delivers anywhere in California on a scheduled day, at a flat rate agreed in advance.
